Chapter 37 Charity Fundraising Enrique was afraid that Gao Qi was too tired, so he gave him two more days off. You know, this young coach has very strict training requirements for the players, and whether they have a chance to play also depends on their training attitude. Even the football in the room was taken away. Before leaving, Ivan warned: "You haven't developed well yet, and your testosterone is not enough. You can't do strength training secretly. You need to get enough rest." “Rest is also a form of training.” Gao Qi could only take a walk, read a book and listen to music. I feel bored when I have free time. Especially after obtaining Maradona's incomplete ball sense module, without a football, you can only juggle paper balls and apples. Day three. The morning light shines on the mottled iron gate.
The smooth part became even smoother, making the rust on the iron gate look like vines. The young assistant hummed a tune and hammered on the window of the dormitory guard booth. The security guard put down the newspaper and asked in confusion: "Are you singing about the Roman pine trees or the Roman fountains? Roman festivals?" The assistant threw down a cigarette: "Butterfly Lovers." He is going to Monaco with Gao Qi today to participate in a UEFA charity event. Originally Sabatini was going to go, but the old man had to return to his hometown - Sampdoria to see his grandson, and Totti also gave the opportunity of player representation to Gao Qi. Gao Qi sat in the business car, reading the newspaper. The assistant couldn't help but stretched out her hand to pinch his sleeve, and said with emotion: "The boss is really willing to spend money to customize casual clothes for you." Gao Qi nodded: "Well, Mr. Sabatini said that I will help the club make a lot of money." The driver couldn't help but laugh. The young assistant thought about it and nodded repeatedly. Not to mention the revenue from broadcasting rights, if we play the last few games well and qualify for the Champions League, UEFA will receive a lot of bonuses. "I heard that Maradona will also be there. Gao, please help me get his autograph." "Let's go!" A few hours later. The plane flew through thick clouds and arrived at Monte Carlo Airport. Gao Qi and his assistant walked out of the airport entrance. As far as the eye can see, there are huge crowds of people. Crazy fans, crazy shaking posters.
"Gao, these are not your fans." "I know." The two people followed the queue of tourists and walked out of the cordon silently. UEFA's business car had been waiting for a long time. A girl in uniform next to the car held up a sign and waved at the two. "Gao! Here." "There's no time left, get in the car." "Wait a moment." The assistant carefully checked the other party's UEFA work permit before signaling Gao Qi to get in the car. He secretly made up his mind: when he travels far away in the future, he must ask the club to bring more bodyguards, not only for safety reasons, but also for appearances. The business car slowly drove out of the airport. The girl in uniform briefly introduced herself. Her name is Bella, she is very young and looks a bit like Monica Bellucci. The reason why Gao Qi was so easy to recognize was that her hometown was Rome and her family would follow the Serie A games. The assistant immediately became interested and said proudly, "No wonder, Gao is a hero of Rome and every girl in the Eternal City." Bella's face darkened: "I am a Lazio fan, my whole family is a Lazio fan." "." suddenly. Everyone heard cheers like a landslide and tsunami suddenly erupting from the direction of the airport entrance. It seemed as if the ground was shaking slightly. "Cristiano!!!" "Cristiano!!!" "Cristiano!!!" C Ronaldo is here too? Grimaldi Conference Center. A long red carpet was laid from the South Gate to the roadside street. There were many photographers gathered on both sides of the red carpet. The dense array of guns and cannons was like dense black bushes.
Monaco is small, the Grimaldi Forum is huge. Important international exhibitions are often held here, and each area is decorated with different cultural elements at different times. It encompasses everything, especially oriental elements. The Monaco royal family is a good friend of the Eastern country. In order to promote cultural exchanges between the two countries, Prince Albert II did not hesitate to send the Millennium Throne to the Forbidden City and launched Chinese language courses in middle schools. Gao Qi and his assistant were not stopped for interviews, and the Roma team logo on their chests did not arouse the interest of major media. Bella led the two of them and they had a smooth journey. “There will be many sponsors present at today’s event.” "There are several events that require players to be drawn to show their skills on the field to raise funds for charity." After entering the conference venue. Gao Qi separated from the assistant and Bella. Under the guidance of the on-site meeting staff, he came to the front row of the player representative seats. The seats on both sides are empty for the time being. The stage lights are beautiful and people are coming and going. Iniesta. Ibrahimovic. Pirlo. Balotelli. Harvey. Rooney And so on, all the stars made their appearance. The seat next to Gao Qi was still empty. He was about to check the news, but then he remembered that his phone was in his assistant's backpack. He could only stare at the camera. About fifteen minutes later. The venue erupted in cheers. Click, click, click! The spotlights are flashing wildly! Gao Qi turned around and saw Ronaldo. C Ronaldo walked slowly down the stairs, surrounded by spotlights. His seat was also in the first row. Just next to Gao Qi. The two had little interaction during their time at Real Madrid. One was a young player at La Fabrica, and the other was a superstar training at the Sports City. They looked at each other and said nothing.
The stage gradually opens. Several UEFA leaders took the stage to speak. After the leader finished speaking, it was the turn of the sponsor representatives to speak. The stereo system plays classical music. The big screen was pitch black. So dull that it makes people sleepy. Ronaldo was so bored that he couldn't help but steal a glance at Gao Qi. Gao Qi felt his gaze and couldn't help but smile. For a moment, the two looked at each other. C Luo couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. It hasn't fully risen yet. He suddenly noticed that the camera was pointed at him and immediately regained his stern expression. Not being cool. There is no way to be too friendly with the "public enemy of Real Madrid" around you. suddenly. The dullness of the conference hall was broken. The sound equipment switched to passionate BGM. Maradona dragged his fat body onto the stage holding a football! The host quickly introduced the next segment: "Fundraising through Ball Skills" The microphone was immediately snatched away by the king of football. "What kind of money are we raising?" "Do you think we are clowns?" The atmosphere suddenly solidified. Maradona's personality is such that once he is in a bad mood, he can do anything crazy. "But for the suffering children all over the world, I am willing to be a clown! Are you willing?" clap clap clap! There was thunderous applause at the scene! "Cristiano, will you?" "The boy next to you, are you willing?" What a weird way of asking.
It made everyone laugh. C Luo and Gao Qi nodded helplessly. Maradona clapped his hands and said, "Are you willing? Then you two come up!" The two walked onto the stage together. Ronaldo whispered: "Don't be nervous, I will control the strength, just catch the ball like you usually do in training" His ball sense is actually not bad, and he played very well in the early stage of his career. Gao Qi nodded. When it comes to juggling the ball, most professional players really can't juggle the ball. God of War Batistuta admitted in his autobiography that he was very bad at dribbling during his time in the Argentine Primera Division. A few years later, at the signing ceremony at Camp Nou, a talented young player was so nervous in front of the camera that he couldn't even juggle the ball. Senior representatives of the clubs of various top teams had already learned of Gao Qi's weaknesses from scouts and analysis agencies. At this moment, I am in the mood to watch the joke. I think Gao Qi will make a fool of himself on the stage. It's not strange that professional players are bad at juggling the ball. When Rooney first participated in this activity, he didn't juggle the ball very often. The assistant couldn't help but feel a little worried. He whispered to Bella, "Great ball sense." He stopped talking halfway through. How can you talk about the weaknesses of a Roman hero in front of outsiders? Bella's eyes were full of anticipation: "If we bounce a ball to each other, we'll get 1,000 euros for charity. There will be two money printing machines on the stage!" Beep! Maradona pulled out a whistle from somewhere. Fundraising begins. C Ronaldo picked up the ball, bounced it a few times, and passed it to Gao Qi. The force is well controlled. The landing point is very comfortable. Gao Qi seemed to have not yet come to his senses. He staggered to adjust his pace and raised his left foot. Are you going to make a fool of yourself? Followed by. A surprising scene happened. The football touched Gao Qi's instep, as if it was covered with glue! The two are like a loving couple who are unwilling to separate.
Maradona couldn't help but frown, then burst into laughter. The representatives of the clubs were a little confused. The assistant breathed a sigh of relief. Gao Qi raised his foot lightly and the football flew towards Ronaldo. The force is very well controlled. The landing point is very comfortable. Ronaldo smiled and couldn't help but want to give the other party a thumbs up. gradually. The football flew back and forth in the air like a dancing elf. The distance between Gao Qi and Ronaldo is getting farther and farther. The two people were about to retreat to the sides of the stage. The part that touches the ball also gradually extends from the feet to the head. There was thunderous applause in the venue. The assistant looked confused. The senior representatives of various powerful teams secretly cursed the scouts and analysis agencies a thousand times in their hearts. finally. The fundraising ceremony ended. Group photo session. The spotlight flashes. Click! The picture freezes. Gao Qi and the brilliant stars of this era left behind a precious photo. only. He turned his head and looked at Ronaldo next to him, and saw that he was taller than him. (End of this chapter)
